Erythrocyte deformability refers to the ability of erythrocytes (red blood cells, RBC) to change shape under a given level of applied stress, without hemolysing (rupturing).rythrocyte deformability is an important determinant of blood viscosity, hence blood flow resistance in the vascular system. It affects blood flow in large blood vessels, due to the increased frictional resistance between fluid laminae under laminar flow conditions.
Definition - What does Ductility mean? Ductility is the ability of a material to deform under tensile stress. It is a measure of how much strain a material can take before rupturing. It can also refer to the property of malleability, which is the ability of a metal to be pounded into thin, flat sheets. Ductility is especially important in metalworking, as materials that crack, break or shatter under stress cannot be manipulated using metal-forming processes, such as hammering, rolling and drawing.
